A BITTER HARANGUE.
The Very Wild Talk of a Very Foolish
Negro.
(Erom the Baltimore Sun.

From LQc baIllnOre SUu)
A meeting of colored citizens was held
in this city last night. The chairman
stated that it was called to advocate
judicious emigration from those parts Of
the South where the colored people are
subjected to unjust treatment to such
parts of the United States where they
enjoy the rights and privileges accorded
to every citizen Of the United States.
That there are many places In the South
where the colored people enjoy proper
civil protection is an admitted fact. Our
policy will be to encourage them to re-
main there, for the reason their position,
to say the least, is fair. But We shall
never cease our labors in the interest OF
those who are not so well of.
E. II. Sutton (colored) an ez-member
of the North Carolina Legislature, was
introduced. He said: "In the matter of
voting all kinds of device are practiced
to defraud the colored people out Of
their votes. Throughout the Solid
South laws have been made that no de-
vice, such as picture Of any kind, or
even dot, should be placed on ballot,
that would enable the voters who are
unable to read to discriminate between
the Democratic and Republican tickets.
Whenever such ballot is found IN the
ballot box it is thrown out, and if found
in the hands of a colored voter he IS sent
to prison for violating the election laws.
In many counties the leaders among the
colored people are arrested and sent to
the penitentiary or murdered to intlml-
date their followers. By the landlord
and tenant laws, if a colored man plants
crop and gathers it before the landlord
makes division of it according to his
claims upon the tenant, the tenant is
convicted of fraud and sentenced to the
penitentiary. By what is known as the
justified law of North Carolina, colored
men are prevented from going security
for each other by a law requiring such
sureties to swear that they are worth
81, 500 in real estate, which must be un-
encumbered by mortgage and the party
entirely out Of debt. The whites will
sell colored people al the land they
want, but they must agree to give the
grantor a mortgage on the land, and
work It in partnership until paid for.
One may work on such terms for twenty
years and ct its expiration viii be in
debt, owning nothing. Provisions are
sold to tenants at extortionate prices
pork at Is cents per pound, common
flour at 5 cents, brown sugar at 10 cents,
etc. Women are hired at eighty-two
| per month. The schools in many coun-
ties are kept open only two and a half
months. II you undertake to keep an
account of your work and wages and
hold the employer to it, you are ac-
counted bad 'nigger, and must be got
ten rid OF, o. you will spoil al other
niggers.' You must either escape for
your lie or be put in prison on some
pretext or murdered. y

THE DUDE AND TUE BEAR.
Eli Nye Again RouSes Up the Interstate
Commissioners.
(From the New York World.)

(From the New York World)
Under the Interstate Commerce Law
dog cannot ride on the elevated road
but this does not apply to other wild OF
domestic animals.
That is the reason that q dude yester
day, accompanied by young bear:
weighing about forty pounds, success.
fully evaded the ticket-taker and rode
down town on one ticket.
The dude wore one OF those short
WASTED and sawed-off ulsters, commonly
called Norfolk jackets, but the cub wore
nothing but an air Of defiance.
The two sat down near each other, but
the bear was restless. Finally he jumped
up on the seat near a lady. who was
riding down. town, and she went into
another car. There was good deal OF
room then near he dude, but nobody
wanted any Of those seats.
There ought to be some ruling on this
question of bear transportation. 1t Is q
matter that interests al Of US. Can wild
beasts and reptiles be classed as people,
while dogs are ruled out? Can man,
dCCOul pdu1cu ~ q SIAt-iI wy, W os-A4N
out, while the owner of an elephant OF
an active hornets nest may take bis
property with him on his journey?
Here was clear case Of wild beast
whose youth alone prevented his eating
people, for he hungry enough to eat the
hind legs OF q railroad frog.
The question to be submitted to the
Interstate Commission is, whether the
railways by thus leaving down the bars
ere not, as common carriers, to admit 8
gentleman accompanied by a hyena, q
pet goat, an alligator or a rhinoceros.
Unjust determinations cannot be made
to the prejudice of any one.
It is TO be hoped, however, that furth-
er complications may be avoided by
leaving the bears at home, and If the
owners can tear themselves away from
their bears during business hours ana
leave them at home, it viii do much to
restore travel to its normal condition.

CANADA WANTS ALL.

Hon. JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN, EngllSn
commissioner to settle the fisherie S
troubles, is in state of mind. Canada
has given him pretty plainly to under
stand that she doesn't think much of
him in the first place, and that i'll the
second, unless the fisheries question is
decided her way, she will secede from
Great Britain and go into the govern
ment business on her own account.
Mr.. CHAMBERLAIN naturally doesn't
want to be the means of the mother
country losing more colonies. nor does
he want to rest under the implication of
having assumed given line of conduct
quite unjustified by the facts through
coercion on the part of Canada. Hence
Hon. JOsEPH'S perpleXity. Canada is
quite unwilling to consider any PROPOSE
ton which does not give her the lions
share. The only thing left, then, is for
the home government, as represented by
Mr.. CHAMBERLAIN, to advise complete
reciprocity and commercial union.
We don't need Canada very much, but
if our fishermen have taken fancy to
Canadian fishing grounds, they might
as well be gratifed, even II we are III
return giving Canada the best of the
bargain in inviting her to assume recip-
rocal trade relations with us. Our high
tariff friends might not like such a
union, but we are travelling rapidly To-
ward that point where the opinions
of our high tariff friends, when COM
pared with the opinion of the entire
country, will amount to very little.
Or better still, let Canada get rid of
her huge debt and then come completely
over into the sisterhOOd of states. There
will then be no difficulties over fisheries
or anything else, and our northern
neighbOr would discover the elevating
tendencies of good company. This sug-
gestion we especially commend to the
careful consideration of Hon. JOSEPH
CHAMBERLAIN,

more or less poisonous substance, and
the desired result will be achieved. Is
it that the anxious maid would possess
a clearer skin or more ruddy complex
ion? Then Nature has the remedy at
hand. Vigorous exercise, sound sleep,
abstinence from late hours, with their
accompanying designations, and an
abundance of cold water frequently ap-
piled, and if it is in the nature of things
the rosy hue will be forthcoming.
Mrs. WILCOX and her school may be
very learned in the use of the chemists

more chan any of them. And it is pity
that Dame Nature is just the one from

MEN WHO TALK.

Hon. A. r. MCGILL-Warden STOR-
DOCK had a conference with me on the
subject before he turned over the affairs
of the Saltwater penitentiary to Deputy
WESLEY, and we agreed upon this
course as the proper one to be pursued.
1t was the understanding that in the
event of the criminal charges being
sustained official decapitatiOn would
follow, and the warden appeared
perfectly willing to abide by the deciS-
ion of the courts. When the commits
sion was appointed to investigate ex-
Warden REED, there was no thought of
an examination of Warden STORDOCK,
but subsequently, when charges were
preferred against the latter, the scope
of the commission was enlarged to en-
brace him also. Just what they will re-
port am at loss to know, although l
have been told that the various members
of that body are now engaged in the
formulation of the document; in fact
portions of 1t have already been drafted.
1t will be necessary for the members to
come together for joint action, and it is
possible that they may be ready to sub
init their findings during the ensuing
week. Whether or not, in the event of
the charges against eX-Warden REED
being sustained, criminal proceedings
will be instituted against him, / cannot
say at present, for that would not only
be manifeStly improper, but prema-
tare. But [ shall endeavor to deal i'm
partially, with an eye single to the best
interests of the people, no matter whom
the report may hit.

WHEN.

Old winter has come with his mantle of
white,
Long delayed, he is with us at last;
The sere yellow leaves have been scattered
about
By the keen chilling November blast.
But the birds will return and renew the
sweet songs
That they sang in the summer and fall;
They will MARBLE and chirp the dear lays we
When the cable cars run in st. Paul.
The jingle of sleigh bells will cease TO annoy.
The June bug come back to his home.
The prodigal son will grow hOmesick at
heart
And swear never more will he roam;
The cur that delights to devour your heels,
The ant upyour trousers TO crawl,
VIII strike new deal and give up the old
biz
When the cable cars run in ST. Paul
The beat wno's been standing you off with
his nerve
Will pay up the debt that he owes:
The effeminate youth with the down on his
Will Shave off the fuzz that there grows;
The ''sassiety'' people will all go to church,
And quit both the opera and ball;
All chewers of gum will be looked on as
When She cable cars run in st. Paul.
The man who makes jokes and retails them
VIII be heard with applause and delight;
The dude with a bang and the lady with
slang
Considered by all as just rights
McGill will put Stordock and Reed in
room
To pummel each other and maui;
The Site for a Jail viii be settled for good
When the cable cars run in st. Paul
The subject of base ball will cease TO excite,
Slugging matches will be tame and not
draw,
The saloon men at night will turn off all
light
Just at - as according to law;
Ig Donnelly will prove William Shakespeare
a fraud,
Mike Doran will have the first call,
Doe Day, you will see, will give place to
BILL Lee,
When the cable cars run in st. Paul.
Pat Kelly will join in the carnival craze
With the rest of the boys just for fun,
Fred Richter will caution the fellows on
watch
To keep close eye on the gun,
Joe Spiel will resent every practical joke
That they play on him up at the hall;
Our town will shake hands with the village
above,

Congressman Rice.

Hon. EDMUND RICE-ItiS correct that
belong to the RICE family of the East,
having been born in Vermont and spent
a portion of my life in Massachusetts,
where nearly all the male members of
the family are called deaconS. My re-
Semblance to Representative WILLIAM
RICE, of the Worcester, Mass, district,
has been frequently commented upon,
and while at Washington last winter |
was frequently mistaken for him by
many of his constituents who were Wis
iting the capital.
do not count upon much progress
being made this winter in regard to the
tariff reduction, although it is certain
to be agitated, but the session will I'M
dOubtedly be a lively one owing to the
numerous issues involved.
| think the president will make very
wise choice in sending Secretary LAMAR
to the supreme court, the position being
one that is suitable for him in every
way. He is student and man of
thirty years political experience, who
will do honor to the place and make a
most impartial justice.
Postmaster General Villas would be
eminently proper and efficient as sec
rotary of the interior. for he is West
erner and knows exactly what the
people of that section demand and their
needs. We want one of our own people
in the interior department, owing to the
numerous land, railroad and other ques-
lions of similar import that come before
that bureau, and which require that the
secretary shall be one who has prac-
teal and thorough knowledge of West
ern interests. There is no use in stirring
up the question of titles to property
i-t, hnr al
been the policy of Gen. SPARKS, of the
land office; for if his methods were to be
enforced we might as well go back to
the time that America was discovered,
when the Indians were the sole prOprie-
tors of the soil. Such efforts only agi-
tate the people unnecessarily, depreSS
business and do no earthly benefit to a
soul. Besides, it is too much to expect
of an administration of four years that
the records of those that preceded it for
thirty years should be overhauled, and
for what? Merely to satisfy the cravings
for Dotoriety of single individual who
has proven himself crank on the land
policy of the government, as he terms it.
| trust we have had an end of such
controversies as the one that has recently
transpired between Secretary LAMAR
and Land Commissioner SPARKS, and
that the latter's successor will be a capa-
BILE. intelligent, energetic official, who
will work for the good of the people
and throw aside the devices of dema-
gOgue.
President CLEvELAND's administra-
ton has been a strong one in every
respect, and he is not going to leopard
ize his past success by trusting to in
competent men. While | am not per-
sonally acquainted with Hon. Don NJ.
DICKINSON, who has been named as the
successor of Mr.. Villas, 1 am told that
he is vigorous, practical business man
and one who will make the post office
department model bureau, although he
will find that Postmaster General Villas
has made matters very easy for his sue
ceSSOr.

THE BEST COSMETIC.

The latest production of that prolific
authoress and experienced woman of
the world, ELLA WHEELER WILCOX, is
''On the Use of Cosmetics" The article
has gone the usual rounds and, attract
ing the attention of thousands of wom-
en-, has led to more or less discussion
as to the efficacy of the different modes
of treatment which she advises.
Without prejudice to the different
brands of paint, powder and pOmatum
which the different disputants commend
or condemn, we beg leave to differ with
all of them. There is but one effectual
beautifier of the female face and form
divine, and that is Nature. She is a
chemist who fashions her tools more
cleverly than the most expert of all the
cosmetic manufacturers, and she does
nothing but firSt-class work either.
1t is only necessary TO follow the di-
rections, which are just as explicit as
though printed on bottle containing a

means, they say also, campaign of
blOody-Shirtisnl, which Is very good for
old-tlme Republicans In Minnesota, who
may have incidentally had strong Sc
ceSh views twenty-five years ago, and
gave to the negro the same liberation that
they did to rattlesnake. One member
of the committee has been heard to say
that in his opinion Gen, TEcUMsEH
SHERMAN would be nominated. This
member was not Mr.. HEATwoLE, whose
journal quite automatically straddles
the fence, and, while publishing tru-
isms as to what mans moral conduct
should be, ogles with equally diStrib-
uted SmirkS SHERMAN, LINCOLN and
BLAINE.
~
There is pretty good story told on
HEATwOLE in connection with the trip
of the Republican committee last fall
into the wilds of the Fifth district in
search of alleged Democratic election
frauds. He received after the de-
parture of the committee a telegram
from one of them with Western Union
spelling. Practically it was undeci-
pherable, and he and Gen. FLOWER
racked their brains trying to make it
out. HEATwOLE was positive that it
}ad been wOrded that way so as to re-
zeal to only the faithful in st. Paul
some great discovery of corruption. He
based this opinion on faith, because he
could not find a key to the mystery.
Finally it was sent back to the Western
Union with the request that the send
ing office be asked to repeat it. This
was done, and HEA TwoLE then read
this message addressed to him from one
of the supers of the committees:

A Minneapolis Editor Makes an
ASinine Blunder.
To the Editor of the Globe.

To the Editor of the Globe.
The old axiom that zone fool creates
many" is strikingly illustrated by the
editor of the Tribune in the following
paragraph in Thursdays issue of that
paper, viz:
In its article on Minnesota Chambers En-
cyclopedia says the principal cities are st:
Paul, St. Anthony, Saltwater, WinOna and
Hastings. It's agricultural statistics are the
mOth-eaten figures of 1869, and its other
facts are equally venerable. The Farming
ton Tribune is entitled TO a vote of thanks for
calling attention to the fact that in buying
Chambers Encyclopedia for public school
libraries the state is investing i'll a last year
bird S nest.
Herein he shows his complete ignOr-
ance of the fact that the country editor
is far behind the times in possessing an
old, superannuated edition of Chambers
encyclopaedia, and is probably not
aware of the fact that a new edition of
Chambers has been published by p. f.
COllier,tin which the discrepancies he
complains of do not exist. In view of
the fact that the great reading majority
of the public look to the newspapers
for their general information, is it not a
gross imposition upon the public for
such an ignOramOuS to decry one of the
best publications of the day simply be-
cause he is behind the times and is in
nocent of the knowledge that one of the
most important works to grace an edl-
tors Sanctum in not in his possession?
Let him unite his purse strings and de-
vote few moments to the next book
agent who calls upon him with the new
edition of Chambers encyclopedia, and
he will largely increase his source of in
formation. If the learned editor of the
Minneapolis Tribune is so easily
scooped by the antiquated editor of the
Pennington Tribune, what is to become
of the poor Tribune? Their vote of
thanks will not be given to either of
said papers if they cannot furnish more
reliable information than they give in
this instance. JOIN ID. HARDE.

G. A. LOunsberry,

Editor LOUNSBERRY, of the Duluth
Evening JOurnal-KNUTE NELSON'S
friends in the Fifth district take it for
granted that he means what he says
when he declares he is out of politics,
depOSiting his ballot on election day,
and are favorable to Judge STEARNs as
his successor in congress. | have
always been friend of Mr.. NELSON
and have stood up for him on every Oc-
caSiOn. and If he is out of the field | am
a STEARNS man, with HARTLEY as sec
Ond choice. And this seems to be the
sentiment in the district among all
classes of people. AT the risk OF being
called biased [ can not refrain from put
ting in peg or two for the Zenith City
with view to calling attention to its
wonderful progress. Matters are crys-
talliZing with us now, and in the course
of year or two they will be established
on sound basis. 1t is only necessary to
state the class of buildings that are now
being constructed to give good idea of
the substantially and prospects for
the future prosperity of Duluth.
Brown stone, granite and pressed
brick are the principal mate
rials used for our business blocks,
under way now are the First National
bank, a five-story, brown stone and
brick structure, which has just been
turned over for use and cost 100000; the
Spaulding hotel, with the first floor of
brown stone, now up to the second
story, and will go four stories higher,
which will cost $3.50, 900, and the Equita-
bic Life Insurance company, OF New
York, has completed ARRANGEMENTS and
adopted plans for five-St0ried business
block, the cost of which will be $l50,000.
These buildings are only samples of a
few that it is proposed to adorn Duluth
with, and | have not recounted any of
the projected improvements in docks,
warehouses or manufactures that capt.
tai will be invested in. Our facilities
now are better than Chicago for unload
ing and shipment, for boat can come
up to our docks with load of $500 tons
of iron, discharge cargo, and be loaded
the same day with $4,000 bushels OF
wheat. This is not Boosting, but fact
Chicago, after a freight boat leaves the
lake for the discharging depot, it fire.
quently requires three days to unload.
With the immense mineral resources
that lie at our very doors, it is my i'm
preston that our population of 10000
souls will not be very hard pressed for
a means of livelihood, and we are only
in our infancy yet. The water power
with fall of 175 feet is fully equal to if
not better than Minneapolis. and far
sighted men, quick to appreciate the
advantages of our situation, are taking
the opportunity to prepare themselves
for marvellous growth of the city of
which PROCTOR KNOTT may be called
the patron saint.
